Polymersilicate concrete is used for structures of industrial buildings in many industries, where production processes form an acidic wet- gas operating environment. The lightweight polymer silicate shungizite concrete, proposed by the author for external walls, can also be attributed to these materials. The polymersilicate composition is based on the components of schungite and schungizite. The composition also included liquid glass, sodium silicofluoride and furyl alcohol. These ingredients are usually adopted for polymersilicate concrete. Previously, the author carried out the research of physical and mechanical properties of the composition. The components based on schungite and schungizite were chosen because of their high acid resistance. The issue of the corrosion resistance of reinforcement in light polymer-silicate concrete has not been studied enough. This article presents the results of investigations of the corrosion resistance of steel reinforcement in polymer silicate shungizit concrete. The investigations were carried out in an airy environment of high humidity and in solutions of sulfuric acid of various concentrations. After the established time limits for corrosion testing, the corrosion of reinforcement in samples was not observed. Such a result was obtained due to the dense structure of the material and high acid resistance of the constituent components on the basis of schungite and shungizite. There is no need for additional protection of the concrete surface to prevent corrosion of the reinforcement in it . The author recommends the use of the material for reinforced structures of external walls exposed to an acidic wet- gas operating environment.

Much attention is paid now to the energy efficiency of external enclosing structures. The study of this issue is especially important for external walls, operating in an aggressive environment. The author proposed the light polymer-silicate shungizit concrete (LPSC) for exterior walls of buildings with acidic, wet-gas environments. Shungizite as a lightweight aggregate was chosen because of its high acid resistance. The experience of using shungizit concrete on cement binder for structures of residential, public and industrial buildings was olso taken into account. Previously, the author conducted studies on the physic-mechanical properties of LPSC with a density of 1000 -1200 kg/m3. Studies have shown that this material can be applied to the exterior walls of buildings with acidic, wet-gas environments. This article presents the results of studies on the energy efficiency of walls made of LPSC.

Concrete components can severely suffer from corrosion during their service lifetime. To achieve higher durability, glass coatings can be applied onto the concrete surface for protection purposes. Current solutions for protection measures are either sticking thin glass panes onto the concrete or applying plastic layers using flame spraying. The aim of this work was to develop an optimised glass composition for protective layers, in order to be suitable for flame spraying on concrete. The main advantage of this process is the deposition of continuous and joint-free glass layers onto complex geometries. Dense glass layers provide a much higher corrosion resistance and lifetime compared to polymer layers. The challenge encountered by these glass coatings resides in the contact with strong acidic fluids on one side and with the alkaline concrete on the other. Therefore, a new glass appropriate for flame spraying has been developed. The composition of this glass is cheaper compared to established reference glass products while providing comparable alkaline resistance. As the acid resistance of this glass is not sufficient, in order to ensure the desired requirements of an adequate corrosion protection, a multilayer glass coating was developed, in which the first layer consists of the alkaline-resistant CaO–Al2O3–SiO2 glass and the second layer of an acid-resistant glass.

Abstract BRUSH Alloy 3 offers the highest electrical and thermal conductivity of any beryllium-copper alloy. It possesses an excellent combination of moderate strength, good corrosion resistance and good resistance to moderately elevated temperatures. Because of its unique physical and mechanical properties, Brush Alloy 3 finds widespread use in welding applications (RWMA Class 3), current-carrying springs, switch and instrument parts and similar components. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, hardness, elasticity, and tensile properties as well as fatigue. It also includes information on corrosion resistance as well as casting, forming, heat treating, machining, joining, and surface treatment. Filing Code: Cu-454.

Abstract Kaiser Aluminum alloy KA62 (Tennalum alloy KA62) is a lead-free alternative to 6262. It offers good machinability and corrosion resistance and displays good acceptance of coatings (anodize response). It can be used in place of 6262 because its physical and mechanical properties are equivalent to those of 6262 (see Alloy Digest Al-361, September 1999). This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, hardness, tensile properties, and shear strength. It also includes information on corrosion resistance as well as forming, heat treating, machining, and surface treatment. Filing Code: AL-362. Producer or source: Tennalum, A Division of Kaiser Aluminum.

The construction of radiation shielding buildings still developed. Application of ionizing radiations became necessary for different reasons, like electricity generation, industry, medical (therapy treatment), agriculture, and scientific research. Different countries all over the world moving toward energy saving, besides growing the demand for using radiation in several aspects. Nuclear power plants, healthcare buildings, industrial buildings, and aerospace are the main neutrons and gamma shielding buildings. Special design and building materials are required to enhance safety and reduce the risk of radiation emission. Radiation shielding, strength, fire resistance, and durability are the most important properties, cost-effective and environmentally friendly are coming next. Heavy-weight concrete (HWC) is used widely in neutron shielding materials due to its cost-effectiveness and worthy physical and mechanical properties. This paper aims to give an overview of nuclear buildings, their application, and behaviour under different radiations. Also to review the heavy-weight concrete and heavy aggregate and their important role in developing the neutrons shielding materials. Conclusions showed there are still some gaps in improving the heavy-weight concrete (HWC) properties.

In this paper, hyperbranched polyether functionalized graphene oxide (EHBPE-GO) was prepared by a facile one-step method. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffractometry (XRD), thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA), and trans-mission electron microscopy (TEM) results confirmed the formation of EHBPE-GO. Then, EHBPE-GO was cured with phenolic amides at room temperature to prepare epoxy coatings. The corrosion resistance of epoxy coatings was investigated systematically by using electrochemical and traditional immersion methods. Results show that a small amount of EHBPE-GO (8 wt % of Diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA)) in epoxy coating achieves 50% higher improvement in acid-resistance than unmodified neat DGEBA resin. For the nanocomposite epoxy coating, the superior acid-resistance is attributed to the increased crosslink density and the impermeable 2D structure of EHBPE-GO. This work provides a facile strategy to develop the effective improved corrosion resistance nanofiller for epoxy coating.

This paper investigated a new type of admixture which can be used to enhance the resistance of concrete surface to deicing salt deteriorating. Physical and mechanical properties of concrete incorporating this salt-scaling resistant admixture were measured. Practical application on site has proved that this admixture is effective for concrete to resist salt-scaling action.
